Well I'm not doing as well as I had expected but at least I'm still trying. I am now in the 180s. I joined a gym back in November and I've been working with a personal trainer. She says I'm getting smaller. To a certain extent I believe she is right. I am in a size 16 bottoms and an XL top. I probably could go down another size in the tops, but I don't like it when the remaining rolls show.
I've gotten rid of most of my old clothes since they do me no good. I'm not buying too many replacements either. I'm just buying them as I find a need for them. I just bought a size 16 skirt from Old Navy and I am absolutely thrilled since their sizes run small.
I'm going out tonight with my boyfriend so I thought I'd take a picture of me in the outfit. I feel a bit trashy really, but what the hell! Only live once. Anyway, I've decided to post that picture and one from a week or so before my surgery. See any difference? I'm not so sure that I do.
My best guess is that I am not necessarily losing weight, but I am losing inches. Of course the surgeon would never know that since he doesn't actually take measurements other than a height and weight. My trainer said that is most likely the case. I have an appointment with the surgeon in February. I guess I'll just have to see what he has to say.

I see a difference, you crazy woman! Your middle has disappeared! Glad to hear that you're also going to the gym also. Healthy habits and all that. Went to Natural Stitches yesterday with my Mom and sister. Starting my first sweater - yikes! Who's this sweetheart of yours, Miss Independent?
You don't see a difference because you are obviously smoking the crack. That and we never have a realistic view of ourselves, especially once we're accustomed to thinking of ourselves in a certain way.
